PHILLIP Schofield revealed he had a bottom like a “dragon’s nostril” after completing the famous ‘one chip challenge’ on yesterday’s This Morning.

The 55-year-old presenter was over the moon when he became the first person on British television to put the world’s hottest crisp in his mouth for almost eight minutes, but he has admitted the after-effects weren’t pleasant.

Phillip Schofield was presented with a golden toilet seat prize after eating the world’s hottest crisp on This Morning

Speaking to co-host Holly Willoughby on today’s show, he said: “I left the sofa and ran out, I switched my mic off and made a ran for my dressing room. I was shouting: ‘I’m going to be sick.’ And you said: ‘Shall I hold your hair for you?’

“And I got to the dressing room and I wasn’t actually sick because I was drinking lots of milk.

“And then there was a knock at my dressing room and our editor had sent a paramedic. There’s only so much you can do.

“She said: ‘Are you OK? You’ll be fine.’ I began to feel OK by 3:30pm and I was pretty much back to normal. I won’t be graphic but suffice to say I have a bum like a dragon’s nostril.”

Thousands around the world have tried to take up the challenge to see how long they can last without dousing the hot flavour in milk or ice-cream to soothe the pain.

Taking to his Twitter account shortly after the show went off air yesterday, the silver fox expressed that he was having some stomach issues and was left with the shakes.

He wrote: “After eating the hottest chilli in the world, I’m now recovering Sitting in my dressing room with the shivers! All ok till it hit my stomach 8 minutes later!! I love a challenge pahaha .. but I’m not looking forward to tomorrow, (sic)”
